## Abstract Recent studies have shown that several angiogenic growth factors are produced and secreted by normal endocrine cells and are increased in pathological states of endocrine glands, including inflammation, hyperplasia, and neoplasia. Expression of corresponding receptors on epithelial cell

Background. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a specific endothelial cell mitogen that stimulates angiogenesis and plays a crucial role in tumor growth. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the expression of VEGF and of its two high-affinity tyrosine kinase receptors (KDR and Flt-
## Abstract Angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels, is controlled by a balance between positive and negative endothelial regulatory factors. Soluble vascular endothelial growth factor receptorβ1 (sVEGFR1), a naturally occurring soluble form of VEGFR1, is a negative counterpart of the vasc
